Egypt has put forward a proposal for a 1 month ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, to begin at 7am on Tuesday.

Reportedly, Hamas has embraced the plan, and they are waiting for Netanyahu to respond.

There has been no comment from Jerusalem on this story, as of yet.

During the ceasefire, Israel and Hamas would continue to negotiate.

A month would give Hamas a lot of time to rebuild and reposition its rocket arsenal unhindered.

1 month from now, when the ceasefire would end (presuming that Hamas doesn’t break the ceasefire earlier) is Rosh Hashana.

Encore!
